AVAILABLE ADULT DOGS
This is a page where I list dogs we have produced or purchased which are over 8 weeks of age that are looking for homes.
These dogs may be from several situations.
-
They could be dogs we were hoping would be a part of our breeding program and for numerous possibilities did not quite end
up being what we had hoped for.
-
They may be puppies of ours that have come back from their owners for some reason and they are now looking for a new home.
-
They could be dogs we have used in our breeding program who are now retired and looking for their retirement home.
-
or they may be dogs who are looking for co-owners
Every dog on this page will be priced individually based on the reason they are for sale.
Chances are they will NOT be discounted to a lower price.
We occasionally have older pre-trained dogs for sale at additional costs. We have likely kept them back to decide between 2 puppies
in a litter which one to keep, we have put extra vaccinations into them, they are crate trained, leash trained, and have learned a wide
variety of commands from obedience, manners and tricks. We have taken these dogs with us for extra socializing leaving other dogs
home. Our time is not free so these pre-trained dogs are priced higher than typical dogs that we have not put so much individual time
and energy into.
If you have any questions about any of the dogs listed on this page please don't hesitate to contact us for more information.
PLEASE DO NOT EMAIL ME ASKING IF I HAVE ANYTHING AVAILABLE.
If or when ANYTHING comes available for sale I will post it the same day and update it regularly.
Seriously, why would I have a dog available for sale and not advertise it?
If I do not advertise it, it can not find a new home.
If it's not listed here I do not have it. You do not need to email me asking.
I promise no matter what day you are looking at this page. It is 100% up to date!
Guide lines for all dogs sold by Stoverly Aussies.
MUST BE RAW FED OR FED TLC KIBBLE UNDER OUR ACCOUNT.
If you are not comfortable with these two diet options, then I am not the breeder for you as all of my dogs are raw fed and are introduced to TLC as a secondary diet, and are required to stay that way.
MUST BE MINIMALLY VACCINATED BASED ON TITRE LEVELS ONLY.
If you are one of those families who wants to vaccinate for everything just because a vet says so please move on, we test titres and
we ONLY vaccinate for what they need other than Rabies every three years by law. If you can not follow this, we are not interested in
placing any of our dogs with you. Sorry but too many dogs die from over vaccinating.
MUST NOT BE PUT ON FLEA/TICK/HEARTWORM POISONS.
They are poisons and our dogs are not to be put on them as preventatives. Period. If you have been brain washed by the media and vet's and think the poisons are less risk than the parasite please find another breeder to work with. I am not at all interested in my dogs being poisoned month after month for the pocket book of money biased companies. We use these products only to treat a known problem and never as a
preventative. We recommend doing blood work regularly to check for heart worm, lyme and anything else you may be concerned with
and treat only if and when you find something that needs to be treated.
IQ
Retired breeding dog, looking for her forever retirement home
.jpg)
Iq is a blue merle female and has been a fabulous part of our breeding program.
Since she has not secured a retirement home, we have bred her one last time, so she will now stay with us until April 2023 when she will be ready for her new family and new adventures.
IQ has brains for days, she is from my incredibly smart blood lines who LOVE to work. She does not care if she ever goes for an official run but she does need her brain worked regularly or she will get into mischief. She knows a bunch of tricks, we have worked her with the frisbee, she can do weave poles etc. She is amazing off leash and ignores those who are not her family. She is fine with other dogs but does not want to interact with them, she wants to interact with her humans more than anything, so if you are thinking of her to entertain another dog, that's not going to work, she only wants a relationship with her humans. She LOVES to go for long walks or off leash hikes, she stays right by your side and is not a wander off and explore kind of dog, nothing is as exciting and rewarding as her humans. She is house trained, crate trained, travels really well, gets along with all ages of people and all animals, dogs, cats livestock etc. She is very affectionate and will hang out and watch TV with us longer than most female dogs.
Now she is not perfect, she can be very manipulative, she lives in a busy home with a LOT of rules, I do not allow my dogs on my bed, they are not allowed on my furniture unless specifically invited up, and if I am not in the house watching them and interacting with them they are not loose, they are in a crate for my own sanity. She has gone on a trial and they just left her loose a lot and just let her do her own thing instead of interacting with her and she started to act out by peeing in the house, something she never does here. She is used to being with me and working, even if I'm just tossing small cookies while I am on the computer and rewarding her for going to a stool or mat, she just likes to be doing something to keep me happy. She has a carb fetish and will steal any bread product from the counter given half a second, this means any children carrying around food are a fair target to steal the food from their hands (gently) or if they put a cookie, cracker etc down she will take it if an adult is not watching. My dogs are used to having me in the same room as them monitoring what is happening and so they respect that and don't get into any trouble, my house is very much open concept so if I am on the main floor so are they, if I am in the basement so are they, and I can see everything they are doing and they are with me which is what keeps them on their best behaviour. They are used to rules and boundaries and that is what they do best with, if they don't have that and they are allowed to do what ever they want, then their personality changes. IQ sleeps in our room at night on the floor and with the door closed, the most she ever does is pace if we have not worked her enough during the day or if she has to potty, but again she is confined to our room behind a closed door.
She has the potential to be an incredible dog for someone who needs a partner and best friend and who has the time to interact with her and is not afraid to crate her when you can't be with her. There are days when I am out of the house for 6-8 hours and she is in a crate with no problem. So you can't be afraid to use the tools she is accustomed to.
If you may be interested and would like more information, please feel free to reach out.
She will be ready to leave April 2023
$500 adoption fee applies.
MARVEL
Marvel is a special girl and we want to put the word out just in case the perfect home is out there. She is very smart and very active. LOVES her family to pieces, is great with all humans, she is fine with kids but does not see how toddlers are any fun since they can't throw a ball very well, so just ignores them, she will play ball or frisbee until your arms fall off so kids of an age toss a ball and frisbee would be her favorite situation. House trained, crate trained, travels well, great off leash, knows a ton of tricks.
Down fall, typical female aussie, NOT GREAT WITH OTHER DOGS.
I have to micromanage her. She plays and interacts with other dogs very aggressively and while it is 100% play, if they don't understand that type of play or they are very soft it turns into a fight. She gets along with all 4 of my boys no problem at all but to an outsider it looks and sounds like they are trying to kill each other, I have just gotten used to it and recognize it for what it is. We only have 2 or 3 girls I can trust her with or it ends up in a fight. She hates soft submissive dogs and will hunt them down just because she can sense they are soft, she does not like to be challenged so alpha personalities also do not do well with her. Because I know she has issues with other dogs she 100% needs a home where she is the only female dog and there are no other dogs who will be visiting or brought in for any reason. She would be better in an out of town setting where she can run in a large yard or field and not have to worry about other dogs. Busy city life like Toronto where there are lots of dogs and only really dog parks for exercise is not suitable for her since she needs to avoid other dogs.
As an only dog she is about as easy and perfect as a dog can be, we can leave her loose when we go out without a crate and she's wonderful. She's obedient and very affectionate and she deserves to live her best life. So we are hoping she can find that very special home where she has no one to compete with.
If you may be interested please contact us. Price vey much negotiable.
As of November 27th 2022 we are looking for serious partner families for several of our adult dogs.

$500 application fee applies in order to arrange a visit with any dogs you may be interested in. We need to weed out those who may not be serious about working with us.
FAMOUS
She is a small Standard Aussie. Sometimes I just don't bond with a dog and that is my issue with Famous. I can't fault her, everyone who knows her loves her but I have never bonded with her. As such I'd love to find her a semi retirement home. I need 1 maybe 2 more litters and then she is retired and I will focus on her daughters. She is very well trained, very affectionate, loves everyone, gets along with other animals no problem, loves kids, house trained, crate trained, excellent off leash, knows a bunch of commands, she really is just a great dog all the way around and she deserves a home who can bond with her more than I have.
If you may be interested in giving her a home and allowing us 2 more litters feel free to reach out.
JOURNEY
She was bred to be a standard size Australian Shepherds but she happens to be smaller than some of my legitimate mini's lol She is a sweet girl, very loving and affectionate but also just like her mom Famous she is rather soft and submissive, a trait I don't bond well with, I like a pushy in your face make me notice you personality and she is just not that. She does however have an incredible pedigree, wonderful structure and movement and will be a huge asset to the breed. I would like to see if I can find her a partnership family where you get to live with her and love her as a pet but I get to borrow her if I ever want to show her, I do all of her health testing and if she passes I get to have 3-4 litters from her. We do offer incentives for partner families if you choose to participate in those incentive opportunities.
feel free to reach out if you may be interested in details.
She won't be 2 until May of 2023 so she will not be breeding until later in 2023 after all her testing is complete. She has not had a first cycle as I type this so she may hold off longer on me. Contact us for information.
GETTING CLOSE TO RETIREMENT
These dogs are looking to retire from breeding in 2023 so it's nice to put the word out now and start to get feelers for people who may be interested. Every dogs needs are unique and will not fit into every home so please read over them carefully before contacting us. They can all stay with me forever if the perfect home does not come along so we are not desperate for them to leave, we just want to put out feelers in case the perfect situation comes along.
CARBON
Carbon will need a family who can come here several times to meet her and interact with her and gain her trust. She is very reserved with strangers and so we can not just toss her in a car and hope it works out, she will spook and if she gets loose will bolt and panic. Once she knows you and trusts you she is the most loyal animal you will ever have the pleasure of living with but she has to get to know you and so coming here to meet her and go for walks etc is not optional. She is great in the house, great off leash, she is good with cats and farm animals, very indifferent to other dogs, does not play with them but does not care that they are around. She has very limited exposure to small children so older children are preferred. She travels amazing in the car, I can easily forget she's with me when we travel, she just curls up and goes to sleep. House with a fenced yard required. No condo settings because she will just stress and bark at all the commotion from hallways. She is an alert barker so anyone who comes to the door will set her off barking.
